A qualitative ethnography based on interviews with 55 men who attend partnership minyan, The Men’s Section was met with acclaim and won the 2012 National Jewish Book Council Award for women’s studies. Barbara Sofer wrote in The Jerusalem Post that it is “refreshing to read a scholarly woman’s analysis of Orthodox men. The author describes the little-discussed subject of life on the men’s side of the divider.” Amanda Borschel-Dan at Times of Israel wrote that the book is “a story about tension, identity and dialogue. About living on the borders of a culture, yet still navigating within them. About negotiating, pushing back, and yes, acceptance. Its tale is particular, yet so universal that scholars and laymen all over the world are picking up Elana Sztokman’s new work, The Men’s Section.” Rabbi Mishael Zion wrote at The Forward that the book makes “a vital contribution well beyond the scene of liberal Orthodoxy,” and that it “provides the intellectual tools through which we can reconstruct traditional gender identity in novel ways.” Rabbi Jack Reimer wrote in The Jewish Jewish Journal that “I can only hope that when we have more women like Dr. Sztokman, who are learned, articulate and committed to both equality and halachah, that things will eventually change.” The book currently has a 5.0 star rating on Amazon (5 ratings) and a 3.5 star rating on Goodreads (10 ratings).
